Chapter 798 (1/2)
”Ya bribe?” Zhuang Shikai came forward, picked up a blue and white porcelain vase in the cabinet next to him, smiled and said, ”I understand.”
If ”black gold” refers to the donation between politicians and gang leaders.
Then ”elegant Bribes” are the interests of mall owners and politicians.
Like antiques.
You know that the blue and white porcelain in Master Zhuang's hand is fake, and he also knows that the blue and white porcelain in Master Zhuang's hand is fake, but if you don't say, I don't say, who knows that the blue and white porcelain is fake?
How much do you say you can sell an antique blue and white porcelain?
Sorry, that can really sell a lot of money, hundreds of thousands, millions, or just one mouth?
High price means ”drilling” and low price means ”leakage”. The specific amount of money depends on how much the interests behind the ”elegant bribe” are worth and how the two sides want to divide the accounts.
This kind of bribery can be described as ”gentle and elegant”, which is called ”elegant bribery”.
Porcelain is only one of the landmarks. All kinds of jade, Buddha beads and anyone with the word ”play” can play like this. Otherwise, how can it be called ”play”?
Chinese culture is broad and profound.
The corrupt authorities on Taiwan island have only dross and no elite.
”If you understand, Mr. Zhuang, this tianqinglou is my territory. It is called tianqinglou because I like blue and white porcelain.”
”But I'm not the one who comes to tianqinglou most often, but several senior officials of the Construction Bureau of Taidao, the Development Association and a large group of businessmen under them.”
”I'm a person with an idle job. I only deserve to be a signboard to help them cover up and see how they rub up the round soup. Alas...” curator Qin sighed with emotion and pointed to the opposite seat and said, ”Mr. Zhuang and Mrs. Zhuang, please sit down.”
”Thank you very much.” Zhuang Shikai put the blue and white porcelain vase back in the cabinet, nodded his thanks, and then sat on two bamboo mat seats with Liu Mei. Curator Qin sat opposite as the host, took out the ”Gaoshan tea” in the mouth of the pot and began to boil water to make tea for Mr. Zhuang.
Curator Qin spoke about the scandal of ”elegant bribery” as soon as he met, which shows his disgust with the Taiwan authorities. In the final analysis, rose and Zhuang Shikai are not clean white background. Rose is still a regular guest of ”Tianqing building” and has bought many ”cans” in Tianqing building.
Those ”cans” are sold in Tianqing building... The money of the cans is naturally transferred to the boss behind the scenes.
This time, rose happened to come to contact him about the dragon head, which made curator Qin smell the opportunity of matchmaking.
However, curator Qin can be used as the layout of ”Tianqing building”, which shows that it is not so ”clean”.
Probably because of his character as a cultural figure, he has a little conscience, or double standards. It may also be that some handles are pinched by people. I feel that the recent situation is wrong, so I want to contact the north.
This man ”cultural man” is a half weight. Don't treat him too superior.
Of course, it's good to know this in mind. There's no need to poke it face to face. After all, it is a responsibility to divide the enemy for the motherland
So Zhuang Shikai naturally took the tea from curator Qin, pinched the cup with his fingers, and sipped the hot tea.
He raised his eyes and said, ”high mountain tea is OK.”
”But it's too different from domestic tea.”
When curator Qin heard what he said, he quickly smiled and said, ”environmental problems, whether the variety, quality and tea produced in small places are far inferior to those in China.”
”Alas, as the curator of the Taipei Museum, to be fair, many treasures are not suitable for collection in Taipei. Taipei's climate, humidity and environment all have a lot of impact on national treasures. ”
”So... I think it's a good thing to return the animal head to China!”
Curator Qin preached with integrity.
Zhuang Shikai praised loudly: ”yes!”
”If you can, why don't you do more?”
Zhuang Shikai raised his eyebrows and used respectful words.
Curator Qin was shocked. He quickly put down his tea cup and squeezed out a helpless wry smile: ”Mr. Zhuang, I have smuggled one or two out of my authority, and I have done my best. There are too many things. The Taiwan army is not a vegetarian! ”
”As you know, the military always keeps an eye on things like museums. I have a good relationship with the military. ”
”I know you, I know you.” Zhuang Shikai finished his tea, put down his cup and showed his bad smile: ”it seems that you haven't done the smuggling of national treasures once or twice.”
”It's not difficult for you to move out of the dragon head.”
Curator Qin smiled reluctantly, stood up and said, ”occasionally, I will help others carry a few pieces. The dragon head is large. I can only transport it one piece, otherwise I can pack more for you.”
”Well, don't say anything polite.”
”Yes, Mr. Zhuang.” Curator Qin turned and took out a wooden box in the tea cabinet. He slapped it and put it in the center of the table on the spot.
The wooden box occupied half the tea table.
Curator Qin opened the lid of the wooden box and revealed a bronze dragon head with open mouth and teeth, towering double corners and angry Xu Zhang.
Zhuang Shikai looked at the dragon's head with vivid and extraordinary eyes, stared for a moment, and finally commented: ”a little momentum!”
”After all, the dragon is the symbol of Chinese civilization. This dragon head was carved and cast with great efforts. It is indeed an extraordinary work of art. Besides, it has historical value. ” Curator Qin said.
Zhuang Shikai nodded to the rose next to him. The rose immediately came forward, closed the lid, picked up a cloth bag to wrap the wooden box, mentioned it and placed it around him.
”Since Mr. Qin is sincere, I won't let you down.” Zhuang Shikai smiled, raised his hand into the pocket of the black suit and took out a small card: ”what you want.”
He pressed it on the table and handed it to curator Qin.
”ID card!!!” Curator Qin immediately opened his eyes and was shocked.
